Let me give you a little lesson…for New Yorkers, Hale and Hearty is this soup gold mine that is a lunch staple. I agree with the masses that the one time I had soup there with my mom, it was amazing. So amazing in fact that four years later she still brings it up. “Remember…

Always up for new brunch places and exploring new neighborhoods, I spent a fabulous afternoon brunching with friends in DUMBO at Bubby’s. Located at 1 Main Street it’s a gorgeous space with floor to ceiling views of Brooklyn Bridge Park and Manhattan in the background. I had the Bubby’s Breakfast: scrambled eggs, amazing bacon, cheesy…
